[User Discussion] - Overlaid study doesn't update when the source changes?

Not sure if I've got something set wrong or if there's an issue I'm unaware of in the way Study/Price Overlay works. I'm defining the range on a 30m bar, of the high/low of the previous bar. I am then overlaying this on a session footprint (1439 minutes numbers bars study) so that as I trade my DOM, I know where price is relative to the range of the last 30m period. This works fine with one exception. On the source chart once the high/low is breached it disappears. The formula for the low (for example), is =IF(L >= L[-1], L, 0) (If price is above or equal to the low of the last 30m period, mark the low, otherwise return zero). When price breaches the low, the highlight disappears from the 30m chart. But the Session chart that it's overlaid onto, still shows it. I have to manually reload the session chart and then it figures out that the study should no longer display. Is there a setting anywhere that is responsible for this behavior? Is there any way to get the session chart to update live when the source chart study changes? |

I discovered a solution to this. Add the "Chart Recalculation - Periodic" study to my session DOM, set to 1 sec intervals. Now within 1 second of my condition on the 30m changing its evaluation status, the session footprint updates. I could even set it to recalculate constantly, but why have that overhead. 1 sec is plenty fast enough. Works great!
